I just purchased a new laptop for development. My old computer was 6 years old. I don't think that it would be powerful enough to run the CyberTable program; not to mention it is slow as molasses when running visual studio.
It will take me some time to get up and running once I get the laptop, but overall I think this is for the best. A big part of what was preventing me from making progress is that I had to sit at my desk in my home office with my desktop computer. After working for 8 hours at a desk, working at a desk at home is the last thing I want to do. Now I will be able to code from the couch!
I got the laptop for $1100 which I think was a great deal for what it comes with:
ASUS M50Vm-X1
Operating System: Windows Vista Home Premium
CPU Type: Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 2.26G
Memory Size: 4GB DDR2
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 9600M GS
Screen: 15.4" WXGA
Hard Disk: 250GB
Video Memory: 1024MB
Weight: 6.7 lbs.
